Pyjamas

© 2010 Marie Guillot

Mileage, sixty years.

A birthday gift: 

Flannel pyjamas.

The design:

A pink cat,

Winking;

Only wearing

A red bonnet

And a blue ribbon.

Cuddle up

With me,

Says the print.

A promise

To get warm

And snug.

Pyjamas are not

 Just for children, 

you know.

Sex-age-narian.

Sex and age,

 Obviously.

Latin sex means

English six.

Or sixty.

Sixty,

 The age of

Flannel pyjamas.
